Fogger Dust Suppression System
Fogger Dust Suppression System is designed to reduce airborne dust by producing ultra fine mist that captures dust particles at source. This leading practice focuses on using high-efficiency fogging technology to improve air quality in areas where dust is generated during mining and material handling activities.
Fogging systems atomise water into very small droplets, increasing the available surface area for effective binding with dust particles. When airborne dust particles collide with the ultra-fine mist, they agglomerate then increase in mass, and settle out of air thereby reducing the concentration of respirable dust remaining airborne.
These systems are typically installed in high-dust generated areas/zones such as:
- Conveyor belt transfer points
- Crushing and screening plants
- Loading and tipping points
- Ore stockpiles and material handling areas
Key benefits
- Reduction of airborne and respirable dust in high-exposure areas
- Improved visibility and air quality for employees
- Targeted application to dust-generating points
- Supports compliance with dust exposure limits and Zero Harm objectives
When used as part of an integrated dust control programme, fogger systems provide a practical and scalable approach to reducing employee exposure to hazardous dust.
